Translator: 549690339
Li xiaonian hammered the iron ore the size of a fist less than a hundred times, and only a small lump was left.
the loss is a Little Big. The lightning rod is a million pounds. Even though I controlled my strength, I still used too much force and knocked the iron off.
The remaining iron ingot was only a small piece.
He definitely did not have enough to forge a dagger, so he could forget about throwing knives.
Out of curiosity, li xiaonian made a simple grinding tool and melted the iron ingot again, casting it into a thin needle.
Ding ...
The system said, ” you’ve successfully forged [ iron needle ]. Experience +1.
Iron needle
[ rarity: inferior ordinary metal, damage neglectable ]
[ attack: 0.2 ]
[ attribute: none ]
[ durability: 1/1 ]
“......”
Li xiaonian was speechless for a long time.
“Wasting a piece of iron ore, what you get in return is indeed this kind of trash.”
however, it’s still a small achievement. At least, it’s still a weapon, although its attack power is so weak that it’s negligible.
Li xiaonian was looking forward to seeing that he had successfully forged it on his first try.
He opened the furnace and continued to burn the iron ore.
Ding ...
Ding ...
Ding ...
......
Li xiaonian buried himself in the battle.
Ding ...
The system said, ” you’ve successfully forged [ iron needle ]. Experience +1.
The system said, ” you’ve successfully forged [ iron needle ]. Experience +1.
......
Li xiaonian’s mood became more and more sullen after failing again and again. He continued to work hard with a sense of dissatisfaction.
56th failure.
Captain, ” Xiao Ya finally said, ” I’ve obtained the relevant data. Please follow my instructions and try it.
“Oh?”
Li xiaonian’s eyes lit up. sure! I’ll do as you say.
Li xiaonian started to smelt the iron ore again.
After the quenching, he picked up the short and fat lightning rod. In his hand, the lightning rod looked like a special brick.
the first strike, be weaker. Try to be as gentle as possible.
Ding ...
Li xiaonian touched the iron block lightly.
“You can use less force, a third less.”
Ding ...
Li xiaonian hammered it again.
yes, according to this strength, hammer 108 times.
Ding ...
Ding ...
......
Li xiaonian carried out Xiao Ya’s instructions without a single mistake.
Captain, open the eyes of the ‘nine-day Heavenly Fire Eyes’ and observe the iron ingot carefully. While observing, slowly increase the strength and slowly discharge the impurities as much as possible.
Whoosh ...
An eye opened between li xiaonian’s brows. This was the sign of the first level of the “nine revolution Heavenly Fire Eyes.” Every time he reached a higher level, he could open one eye, and he could open up to Nine Eyes at most.
With his eye technique, li xiaonian could see that the surface of the iron ingot was covered with all kinds of impurities. It was equivalent to a steamed bun that had fallen to the ground. On the surface, it still looked clean, but under the microscope, it was covered with a large amount of dirt and bacteria.
“I thought it would be very clean, but I didn’t expect it to have so many impurities.”
Li xiaonian didn’t need Xiao Ya’s reminder. He immediately and gently knocked the iron ingot, slowly removing the impurities from it bit by bit.
Li xiaonian had spent almost a day to remove the impurities.
Ding ...
System,’you’ve successfully tempered an iron ingot with a purity higher than 96%, experience +10;”
Upon hearing the system notification, li xiaonian sat down in exhaustion. He couldn’t hide the excitement in his eyes as he clenched his fists.”With little ya’s help, the lightning rod, and the nine revolution Heavenly Fire Eyes, even if I’m a rookie, I can still become a qualified blacksmith.”
Using eye sorcery consumed a lot of spiritual power. He only had 5 points of spiritual power. Every half an hour, he needed to meditate to recover or take a spiritual potion.
Even so, it was all worth it. As long as his proficiency increased, it wouldn’t be long before he didn’t have to do business at a loss.
This time, the refined iron ingot had shrunk a lot, but it was enough to make a dagger.
Ding ...
Ding ...
......
Li xiaonian carefully knocked on the door.
Half an hour later.
Ding ...
The system replied,’you’ve successfully forged [ dagger ], experience +20;”
[ dagger ]
[ rarity: LV2 normal ]
[ attack: 3 ]
[ durability: 20/20 ]
......
The more li xiaonian looked at it, the more satisfied he became. it doesn’t look good, but its attack is a little more than a normal dagger. It’s an excellent dagger.
At this moment ...
Xiao Ya said, ” Captain, you can already forge weapons. We urgently need a weapon mold. It’s best if it’s a silver mold. If the mold’s grade is high enough, there might be a chance of forging bronze equipment. In that case, you can be promoted to an official blacksmith.
A mold was a special tool carved by a Rune Master. After refining and quenching, the molten iron could be poured into the mold to form the weapon. The shape of the formed weapon would be more beautiful and stronger. Not only would it save manpower and material resources, but it could also improve the weapon to a higher level.
It could be said that every blacksmith would carry one or two weapon molds with them.
“Silver grade mold.”
Li xiaonian’s mouth twitched.
Although silver equipment was not as rare as gold equipment, it was definitely not something he could afford right now. With his current net worth, it would be difficult for him to even purchase a bronze mold.
alright, let’s go to the market first. If we can buy a bronze mold, we’ll make do with it.
He did as he said.
He walked out of the rented blacksmith shop and closed the door.
“Handsome, can you repair the weapon?” A beautiful lady from the human-rabbit hybrid clan stared at li xiaonian with watery eyes. She was holding a large saber with an obvious chip on it.
I’m sorry, but I’m not taking any orders for the time being. If you want to repair it, you can go to master fire’s blacksmith shop. Master fire’s ability is unparalleled in the entire new netherworld village.
The human-rabbit hybrid clan’s Beauty’s long ears instantly withered. a fire Master is powerful, but he charges a lot. I’d rather buy a new one than let a fire Master Repair my weapon. As she said that, the rabbit beauty said pitifully, ” “Handsome, please do me a favor and help me fix it.”
In order to increase the stakes, the rabbit beauty extended a finger. 10 domain coins. As long as you repair it successfully, I can pay you 10 domain coins.
10 domain coins?
Li xiaonian was a little tempted.
He had never repaired weapons before, but he was still a blacksmith and knew the profit of repairing weapons.
To repair a weapon, it would at most take up a piece of iron ore, as well as some time and energy.
After deducting the cost, he had earned 9 domain coins.
Unfortunately, I don’t know how to repair weapons.
Li xiaonian felt a little regretful. He shook his head and refused,”I’m sorry, I’m not good enough yet. You should find someone else to repair your weapon.”
The rabbit beauty was dejected, and she turned to leave.
......
Although it was still daytime, there were still many players in the netherworld village’s trading market.
bullets, wholesale bullets, 1 domain dollar for 20 general bullets. Don’t miss it if you’re passing by.
buying wolf skin at a high price, 1 domain dollar each.
premium weapons, starting price of 10 domain coins. You have everything you need. Come over and take a look.
......
Li xiaonian’s attention was attracted by the sound of weapons being sold.
The person who was peddling was an apprentice from master fire’s blacksmith shop. In front of him, there were scattered weapons. There were swords, shields, but most of them were daggers.
All the equipment had average stats and nothing special. Even so, there was still an endless stream of players buying them.
Li xiaonian stood in front of the stall and was about to greet him when the stall owner greeted him warmly, ” brother, I’m selling the shield at a cheap price. Such a big shield is only selling for 120 domain coins. After today, there won’t be any more.
“Senior brother, it’s me, an Ying,” li xiaonian said in embarrassment.
Phil raised his head and was a little shocked. it’s you. Why are you so relaxed? ” If I’m not wrong, you’ve just entered star field, aren’t you going out to farm monsters? Or should I go to master’s place to train my blacksmith skills?”
“......”
Li xiaonian rubbed his nose awkwardly. “No rush, no rush.” In order to change the topic, li xiaonian praised, ” “Senior brother, you’re forging so many weapons by yourself?”
“Hey ... How’s that possible?”
Phil took out a dagger from the stall. here, I spent three days and three nights to forge this dagger. Unfortunately, its attributes are too ordinary, so it hasn’t been sold yet. The other weapons are all forged by other senior and junior brothers. I’m the worst, so I’m selling them on their behalf.
[ dagger ]
[ rarity: inferior ]
[ attack: 1.5 ]
Attributes:
[ durability 12/12 ]
After looking at the dagger’s attributes, li xiaonian was secretly happy. Such a poor weapon, it’s not even as good as the one I made. other people took five to six years, or even seven to eight years, but I only took less than half a month.
Hehe, I’m indeed a genius.
If the civet cat was here, he would definitely roll his eyes at li xiaonian. Genius? Geniuses? they were all trash created by using top-tier treasures, top-tier cultivation techniques, and the help of super-intelligent life forms.
Even though he despised him, li xiaonian still replied humbly, ” senior brother, you’re amazing. I haven’t even started yet, but you’re already self-sufficient.
hehe, it’s alright. Although blacksmithing is a technical job, as long as you’re willing to work hard, you’ll be able to succeed sooner or later. I don’t have high requirements. I just want you to be promoted to a basic blacksmith and be able to forge bronze equipment. Phil replied happily.
“Senior brother, do you know where I can buy a weapon mold?” Li xiaonian took the opportunity to ask.
“A weapon mold?”
Phil was a little confused. He carefully sized li xiaonian up.”Junior Brother, let’s not aim too high. Let’s learn the blacksmith skills first. It’s a waste to buy a weapon mold now.”
Li xiaonian coughed and lied through his teeth, ” “Senior brother, I still have some spare money and I’m planning to buy a mold. Although I can’t use it yet, it won’t depreciate. I’m worried that I won’t be able to save all my money and will have no money to buy in the future. It’s better to buy first and put pressure on myself so that I can learn blacksmithing skills in peace.”
Realization dawned on Phil. He nodded in agreement. that’s true. There are too many things to spend money on in ‘Star Domain’. The money earned is also very little.
“A weapon mold. Since few people use it, it can’t be found in the market. You can only go to Shang sanniang. Shang sanniang is a rune artist. As long as you pay her, she won’t mind carving a weapon mold for you.”
“Okay, thank you.”
He said goodbye to Phil.
Li xiaonian went straight to Shang sanniang’s shop.
Shang sanniang was not a human, but a cat. Her furry palms were the most obvious sign of a cat, and her other facial features were not much different from a human’s.
Shang sanniang’s shop sold one-time talismans. Some could temporarily increase attribute points, and some could temporarily increase attack or defense.
Of course, there were also one-time destructive talismans.
No matter what kind of talismans they were, they were all very expensive. A talisman’s price was equivalent to a weapon’s price. If one was not a tycoon or if they did not have a choice, no one would be willing to use it.
As a result, Shang sanniang’s shop’s business was bleak.
“Senior,” he said. Li xiaonian greeted the napping Shang sanniang.
Shang sanniang opened her eyes and yawned,”What do you want to buy?”
“Senior, do you have any weapon molds for sale?”
“A weapon mold?”
The originally drowsy Shang sanniang suddenly became energetic. When a big business came, it was fine if they didn’t open a store, but once they did, it would be enough to eat and drink for a few months.
“Little brother, what kind of weapon mold do you need?” Shang sanniang asked enthusiastically.
“How much is a bronze saber mold?”
At present, the number of daggers in the entire netherworld village was already saturated, and there was even a trend of proliferation. If he continued to forge daggers, it would be good if he did not make a loss, let alone make money.
Therefore, he set his eyes on the most practical and most popular broadsword.
Shang sanniang’s eyes lit up and she smiled,”Little brother, you have a good eye. According to the current situation in the new netherworld village, machetes are the most popular. As long as you forge a machete, it will definitely be popular in the market. How about this, it’s not easy for everyone, and I won’t ask for a high price. 60000,60000 domain coins will do.”
“Cough cough ...”
Li xiaonian couldn’t help but cough.
Sixty thousand?
A bronze weapon mold costs 60000? One had to know that a normal broadsword in the market was only 30 domain coins.
According to the standard of an ordinary blacksmith apprentice, under extreme circumstances, they could only forge one a day. It would take years and months for them to earn back the 60000 Yuan they had spent.
“Sanniang, your price ... Is a little too high.” Li xiaonian said with a dark face. Even if he sold himself, he wouldn’t be able to get so much money.
“The price is high?”
Shang sanniang was not happy. you get what you pay for. If you have friends, you can ask around in the big cities outside. A large blade mold costs at least 100000 domain coins. My business is not very good, so I can only earn a little bit. Besides, it’s custom made here. You can name the saber or print any symbol or symbol on it. I can satisfy you.”
Suddenly, li xiaonian seemed to have thought of something and couldn’t help but be tempted.
As for the name of the great blade, he could have named it ‘snow dance’. As long as the great blade was widely circulated, perhaps snow dance would know that he had entered the “star field” upon seeing the great blade and would be able to follow the clues to find him.
At the thought of this, li xiaonian gritted his teeth and said,”Senior, please give me a reasonable price. As long as it’s suitable, I’ll set it. If the price is still that high, I’ll have to give up.”
Shang sanniang stared at li xiaonian and thought for a long time, 58888 domain coins. That’s the lowest price. If you think it’s too expensive, then just pretend I didn’t say anything.
“Sure.”
Li xiaonian was too lazy to haggle over the price and agreed to it directly.
“......”
Shang sanniang was slightly stunned and couldn’t help but swallow her saliva. I’m rich. He was just thinking of lowering the price by tens of thousands, but he didn’t expect this newbie to be so impatient.
